For him, that's a job at Com Air.
Did I miss something from Oberon? What I've read states clearly that he doesn't want to define our objective as restoration. Doesn't even want to mention it. Perfectly happy with DALPA's efforts to date. That doesn't add up to someone who "wants restoration."

I mean he might want it. I want to win the lottery. But I don't believe in throwing my money away on odds that are stacked so astronomically against... so I don't play the lottery. Which means winning the lottery is not my objective and there is no way I'm going to win it without playing.

I think that's what Oberon (and really the majority of our MEC) is saying. Sure, they'd love to have restoration. But they don't think it's possible so they aren't going for it. And THAT is the crux of our disagreement.
